Fram X2 Info Posted by Ian Glenday [Email] (#95) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Ian Glenday) on Wed, 30 Apr 2003 10:45:45 In Reply to: Fram ?, Alexandros, Wed, 30 Apr 2003 08:54:58 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I change my Mobil 1 15W-50 at 5,000 mile intervals on my 9-5 2.3lpt with 116,800 miles. Have used Fram X2 for last two oil changes. Saab OEM used for all before that. If this filter is as adverised it certainly should be still in great shape at 5,000 miles. The increased capacity is also a good feature. By the way, this is not a paper filter but a fiber as described below. The .gif illustration may or may not work but can be seen on the Fram website, link below. Ian
